Antimalware Service is a programme that runs on your computer. Windows 10 Professional x64 Bitd
Bitdefender TS 2016 is installed and functioning on my computer. Why does Windows Task Manager display the process "antimalware service executable" running (and using a lot of CPU) on a regular basis? Isn't this anything to do with Windows Defender? When a third-party AV is active, I assumed WD is inactive.

Facing Antimalware Service Executable error on microsoft surface pro !!!!
Quote Windows Defender is really nobody's favorite, especially since it looks like a gray box of oddities and uses a huge amount of CPU capacity. If you get an "antimalware service executable" prompt and don't really care for it like me, you can merely reschedule windows defender to a more suitable time from Task Scheduler…

Ransomware Protection Keeps Blocking Trusted Applications
This is becoming really annoying. I have whitelisted a number of applications on my computer as trusted applications under Ransomware Protection, but every once in a while RP blocks them anyway. It happens most often (but not all the time) with my Quickbooks program. Sometimes, I have to reboot my system in order to get it…

Bitdefender changes GWX Control Panel settings and then disables it.
I am writing this to express my disgust at Bitdefender's decision to support Microsoft's blatant abuse of user's rights of decision, plus I discovered some more issues with it that I find unacceptable.
